The famed Dakota apartment where 20th century starlet Lauren Bacall made home for the last 53 years of her life has gone off the market. The Daily News reports that a mystery buyer has snatched up the renowned Central Park-facing pad. The sales price is still not known, but the nine-room, mahogany-paneled apartment was most recently priced at $23.5 million after failing to woo buyers when it first came on the market for $26 million in November. Rumor has it that Bacall purchased the apartment for a mere $48,000 in 1961.
